Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

The characteristic features of obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) are obsessional thinking and compulsive behavior. Obsessive thinking includes recurrent persistent thoughts, impulses and images that cause marked anxiety or distress. Compulsive behavior include repetitive behavior, rituals or mental acts done to prevent or reduce anxiety. Other features include indecisiveness and inability to take action. Many patients with OCD experience significant degrees of anxiety, depression and depersonalization. OCD is uncommon in the general population, but minor obsessional symptoms are fairly common. The 1-month prevalence rates are estimated to be about 1% for men and 1.5% for women.
